People from his home town might..........just like every other HM in there will have votes from their home town

well, I'm not saying I'm definitely right but I suggest that if there were a British person on an Irish reality show, likewise, they'd probably get a few extra votes thrown their way than normal from Britain. It's not really about Ireland, just seems logical people tend to support their 'own'.

Not on a show like Big Brother, not when the whole things is based around personality, you'd have to be a complete idiot to pretend to like someone just because they're the same nationality as yourself.

Well if the Irish housemate was any way decent, and not a bully, then they might get a few extra Irish votes. But Conor is not a nice person, so I highly doubt that the majority of Irish voters will vote to save him.

Bit of a silly assumption, to think all Irish people would vote for Conor.

I'm English and I hate Arron and won't be voting for him

well yeah but in fairness, some people don't pay much attention and might only have see one or two episodes and vote accordingly

Apologies if I offended you or any anyone else from Ireland that is reading. It honestly wasn't meant as an attack at all on anyone from Ireland, but reading what I typed I can see why anyone would be insulted. I'd be insulted too if someone said the exact same about where I am from, sorry again sincerely.

I can proudly say I am not. Can you?

I'd take Conor staying over Deana leaving anyday.

Not that I think Deana will have to worry :pipe:

I'd jump off a cliff and take my TV with me

Thank you for the voice of reason. I'm irish too, I wouldn't vote for that meat head thug in a million years!

Brother Leon 02-07-2012 09:08 PM

Ireland can't vote anyway can they?


Conor will be saved for being a top 2 HM. No other reason.

No worries, Scotty.

He's an absolutely disgusting specimen and I'd imagine you'd have to be quite a few eggs short of a dozen to support him in any way.
